Part of the brick foundation of Parksley's original 1884 station, a two-story structure built by the NYP&N, was uncovered in 1988 when the museum's Hopeton Passenger Station was moved to this site. The 1884 station was moved to Cooke Street in 1906 when it was replaced by a single-story station similar in design to the Hopeton Station. Built with living quarters for the agent's family on the second floor and railroad business and freight operations on the first floor, the 1884 station has been used continuously as a residence since it was built.
